Getting Help
VPN Tracker makes VPN simple. However, computer networking and VPNs can be complex and tricky at times, so we have also built in tools and helpful fea- tures that will assist you if you ever run into problems. Check out
Trouble-
shooting for more information. 5
Prerequisites
Your VPN Gateway
This guide applies to FortiOS-based VPN gateways
Make sure you have the newest firmware version installed that is available for your device. This guide was created based on FortiOS 4.0 MR1 Patch 3 Older revisions of FortiOS (FortiOS 4.0 or FortiOS 3.0) should work fine for the basic setup as described in the first part of this document The setup using Mode Config that is described in the final part of this document requires at least FortiOS 4.0 MR1 Patch 3
Your Mac
VPN Tracker runs on Mac OS X 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6
The configuration described in this guide requires VPN Tracker 6. Make sure you have all available updates installed. The latest VPN Tracker updates can always be obtained from http://www.vpntracker.com
Scenario
In our example, we need to connect an employee's Mac to an office network. The diagram on the bottom of this page illustrates this scenario. This guide assumes that the Mac running VPN Tracker already has internet connectivity. The office's Fortinet VPN gateway device (the "VPN gateway") is also already connected to the Internet and can be accessed through a static IP address or DNS host name. In our example setup, we will be using a static IP address: 203.0.113.1. The VPN gateway has a second network interface which is connected to the internal office network (LAN). In our example, the office network is using the network 192.168.13.0/24 (which is the same as 192.168.13.0/255.255.255.0). This is the network that will be accessed from the employee's Mac through the VPN. It is called the "Remote Network" in VPN Tracker. 6

Terminology
A VPN connection is often called a "tunnel" (or "VPN tunnel"). Every VPN tunnel is established between two "endpoints". In our example one endpoint is VPN Tracker and the other endpoint is the VPN gateway. Each endpoint is called the other endpoint's "peer". Please note that for each endpoint, the settings on the other endpoint are considered to be "remote", while its own settings are considered to be "local". That means a "local" setting from VPN Tracker's perspective, is a "remote" set- ting from the VPN gateway's perspective, and vice versa. The sample configuration described in this guide is called a "Host to Network" configuration: a single computer, called a "Host" establishes a VPN tunnel to an entire "Network" behind the VPN gateway. 7
My VPN Gateway Configuration
Throughout this guide, there are certain pieces of information that are needed later on for configuring VPN Tracker. This informa-
tion is marked with red numbers to make it easier to reference it later. You can print out this checklist to help keep track of the
various settings of your Fortinet VPN gateway device.

Task 1 - VPN Gateway Configuration
We will first set up VPN on the VPN gateway. If you already have VPN in place, it's helpful to follow along this tutorial to see how settings on the device fit together with VPN Tracker.
Step 1 - Retrieve Network Settings
‣Connect to your VPN gateway through its web configuration interface We have found Firefox to work best with the FortiOS Web Con- fig interface (as of FortiOS 4.0). If you see extra options or some buttons do not work with your web browser, try using Firefox. ‣Go to System > Network ‣Write down the IP address of the internal network interface, including its subnet mask as ➊ on your
Configuration Checklist
‣Write down the IP address of the wan1 network interface (the part before the forward slash "/") as ➋ on your
Configuration Checklist. If your device
has a DNS hostname (fixed or DynDNS), write it down instead.
Step 2 - Create a VPN User
‣Go to User > Local and click Create New ‣User Name: Enter a username for the new user (here: alice). Write down the user name as ➌ ‣Password: Enter a password for this new user. Make sure to remember the password, or write it down as ➍ ‣Click OK to add the user To add more users, simply repeat this step. You might want to connect the device to an existing (LDAP or RADIUS) authentica- tion server, however, we recommend using a local user for the initial setup and testing. 9
Step 3 - Create a VPN User Group
‣Go to User > User Group and click Create New ‣Name: Enter a name for the user group (here: vpn_group) ‣Type: Choose Firewall from the popup list ‣Move the user account(s) you created in
Step 2 from the Available
Users/Groups column into the Members column on the right ‣Click OK to create the group
Step 4 - Set up Phase 1
‣Go to VPN > IPsec and click Create Phase 1 ‣Name: Enter a name for the phase 1 setup (here:vpn_phase1) ‣Remote Gateway: Choose Dialup User from the popup list ‣Local Interface: Choose wan1 from the popup list ‣Mode: Choose Aggressive mode ‣Authentication Method: Select Pre-Shared Key ‣Enter a Pre-Shared Key. Make sure to choose a good pre-shared key and remember it, or write it down as ➎ 10
Advanced Settings
‣Click Advanced... to reveal additional settings If clicking Advanced does not work, your web browser might be incompatible with the web config interface. In our experience,
Firefox works well for this task.
‣XAUTH: Choose Enable as Server When Enable as Server option is not selectable, you may have skipped creating a User Group in
Step 3. Please go back and
complete this step. ‣Click OK to save the phase 1 settings
Step 5 - Set up Phase 2
‣Click Create Phase 2 ‣Name: Enter a name for the phase 2 setup (here:vpn_phase2) ‣Phase 1: Select the phase 1 setup you created in
Step 4 from the popup
list (here:vpn_phase1) ‣Click OK 11
Step 6 - Set up a Firewall Policy
‣Go to Firewall > Policy and click Create New ‣Source Interface/Zone: Choose internal from the popup list ‣Source Address: Select the address object representing your Fortinet VPN gateway's internal network (here: LAN). If you do not yet have such an ad- dress object, create a new one (see the right side if you don't know how) ‣Destination Interface/Zone: Choose wan1 from the popup list ‣Destination Address: Select all ‣Action: Choose IPSEC (earlier FortiOS versions: ENCRYPT) from the popup list. Additional options will become available: ‣VPN Tunnel: Select the phase 1 setup you have created in
Step 4
(here: vpn_phase1) from the popup list ‣Allow outbound: The connection will always be initiated from VPN Tracker, never by the device, so you can deselect this option. ‣Click OK to add the policy Creating an address object representing the internal (LAN) network: ‣Click Create New... ‣Address Name: Enter a name for the new address object (e.g. LAN) ‣Type: Select Subnet / IP Range ‣Subnet / IP Range: Enter your VPN gateway's internal (LAN) network ad- dress and subnet mask. Make sure to use the network address, not the LAN IP address: With a 255.255.255.0 subnet mask this means setting the last part of LAN IP address ➊ to 0 (e.g. 192.168.13.1 becomes 192.168.13.0) ‣Interface: Select internal ‣Click OK to add the new address object 12
Task 2 - VPN Tracker Configuration
After finishing task 1, you should now have a completed configuration checklist containing your Fortinet VPN gate- way's settings. We will now create a matching configuration in VPN Tracker.
Step 1 - Add a Connection
Open VPN Tracker, and click the plus button in the bottom left corner of the window to add a new connection:
Enter a name for the connection that will
let you recognize it later, e.g. "Office"
Select Fortinet from the list of vendors,
then select the device profile correspond- ing to your FortiOS version
Click Create to add the new connection
Step 2 - Configure the VPN Connection
Once you have added the new connection, there are a few settings that need to be customized to match what is configured on your VPN gateway. ‣VPN Gateway: Enter the WAN IP address (or hostname) of your VPN gate- way that you wrote down as ➋ ‣Local Address: Leave empty for now. Depending on your setup, you may have to set a specific local address later. Refer to
Supporting Multiple Users
on when and how to set a specific local address. ‣Remote Networks: Enter the network address of the network that is being accessed through the VPN tunnel ➊. Separate the subnet mask with a for- ward slash ("/"). VPN Tracker will automatically turn the IP address into a network address. Double-check that the result is the same as the LAN address object configured for the policy in
Step 6

Step 3 - Test the VPN Connection
It 's time to go out!
You will not be able to test and use your VPN connection from within the in- ternal network that you want to connect to. To test your connection, you will need to connect from a different location. For example, if you are setting up a VPN connection to your office, test it from home. If you are setting up a VPN connection to your home network, test it from an Internet cafe, or go visit a friend.
Start your connection
Connect to the Internet
Make sure that your Internet connection is
working - open your Internet browser and try to connect to http://www.equinux.com
Open VPN Tracker if it's not already running
Slide the On/Off slider for the connection you
have just configured to On
When prompted for your pre-shared key:
Pre-shared key: Enter the pre-shared key that you configured on the Forti- net VPN gateway in the phase 1 settings ➎ Optional: Check the box Store in Keychain to save the password in your keychain so you are not asked for it again when connecting the next time
Click OK
When prompted for your Extended Authentication (XAUTH) credentials: User Name: Enter the name of the user you have added on the Fortinet
VPN gateway (here: alice) ➌
Password: Enter the password for the user ➍
Optional: Check the box Store in Keychain to save the password in your keychain so you are not asked for it again when connecting the next time
Click OK
14 If the slider goes back to Off after starting the connection, or after entering your pre-shared key or your XAUTH credentials, please read the
Trouble-
shooting section of this document If the slider goes to On and turns green after a while, you have successfully established a connection
Congratulations!

Troubleshooting
In most cases, your connection should work fine if you follow the instructions above. If you cannot connect, please read on.
VPN Connection Fails to Establish
On/Off Slider goes back to "Off" right away
If the slider goes back to "Off" right away, please make sure you have entered all the required information. VPN Tracker will highlight fields that are missing or obviously incorrect information.
On/Off Slider goes back to "Off" after a while
If the connection ON/OFF slider goes back to "OFF" a while after attempting to start the connection, please go to the "Log" tab to get more information about the error (or click the warning triangle to be automatically taken to the "Log" tab). VPN Tracker will display detailed suggestions for a solution:
No Access to the Remote Network
If the connection slider goes to ON and turns green, but you cannot access resources (servers, email, etc.) in the VPN, please check the following points.
Connect to an IP address (instead of a host name)
If you are not connecting to the resource by IP address (e.g. 192.168.13.42), but are using a host name (e.g. server.example.com), please try using the re- source's IP address instead. If the connection works when using the IP address, but not when using a host name, please make sure that your Mac's DNS server or the "Remote DNS" server that you have configured on your Fortinet VPN gateway is able to resolve this host name to an IP address.
Test VPN Availability again
In many networks your Mac will be behind a router that performs Network Address Translation (NAT). For a VPN connection to be established through such a router, VPN Tracker can use different methods, but not all of them may be supported by your local router or your VPN gateway. VPN Tracker automatically runs a test to detect the proper method for your particular Internet connection when you first connect using this Internet con- nection. However, test results could become outdated by changes to the local router, so it is a good idea to test again if there are problems. Select "Tools > Test VPN Availability" from the menu Click "Test Again" and wait until the test has completed
Try connecting again
Check that the IP address you are connecting to is part of the network(s) permitted in the split tunneling setup Check that the IP address you are connecting to is actually part of the remote network(s) you permitted in the firewall policy in
Step 6. Also double-check
the network mask(s) of the address object(s). 16

Supporting Multiple Users
Once your VPN expands to multiple users you must ensure that IP addresses do not conflict by assigning each user their own IP address. VPN Tracker supports manually assigning IP addresses and assignment through Mode Config.
How IP Addresses are Assigned to VPN Clients
The Local Address in VPN Tracker is the IP address that the Mac will be using in the remote network when connected though VPN. In IPsec terms: The Local Address is the local endpoint of the IPsec Security Association (SA). ‣If the Local Address field contains a fixed address this address is used. The address must be unique among all users of the VPN connection Option A - Manually Assigning Fixed Local Addresses ‣When Mode Config mode is used, the local address is assigned automati- cally by the VPN gateway Option B - Assigning IP Addresses through Mode Config ‣If the Local Address field is left empty, the Mac's actual local IP address (as shown in System Preferences > Network) is used It is not possible to use an empty Local Address if ‣the VPN has multiple users (IPs might conflict) ‣the VPN gateway is not the default gateway (router) in its network
Option A
Manually Assigning Fixed Local Addresses
Step 0 - Check Requirements
Manually assigning fixed local address works with any setup, however the administrative effort may be too high if the VPN has a large number of users or users change often.
Step 1 - Choose the Local Addresses
Choose the local addresses for your VPN clients so that ‣the local addresses are not part of the VPN's remote network (= the Fortinet
VPN gateway's LAN)
‣each client has its own, unique IP address The IP addresses may not come from the remote network because the Fortinet VPN gateway cannot act as an ARP proxy for manually assigned IP addresses. Example: The Fortinet VPN gateway 's LAN in our example is the network
192.168.13.0/24 (= 192.168.13.0/255.255.255.0). For the local addresses, choose an
arbitrary private network that is not part of this network, such as 10.0.13.0/24. For each user, pick a different IP address from that network to be used as the
Local Address in VPN Tracker:
UserIP Addressalice10.0.13.1bob10.0.13.2charlie10.0.13.3...10.0.13... 18 Step 2 - Configure the Local Address in VPN Tracker ‣Local Address: Enter the IP address that you have chosen for this user (here:
10.0.13.1 for the user alice)
If your VPN gateway is not the default gateway (router) of its network, you will have to ensure that traffic for the chosen IP addresses is routed back to the VPN gateway instead of to the usual default gateway (e.g. by adding a route on the default gateway to the VPN gateway for these IPs).
Option B
Assigning IP Addresses through Mode Config
Step 0 - Check Requirements
Assigning IP addresses through Mode Config requires FortiOS 4.0 MR 1 Patch 3 or higher. It is necessary to switch the VPN setup to an interface mode (route-based) VPN and to use the command line interface (CLI) for some parts of the setup procedure. Mode Config is only available with IPsec Interface Mode. We will therefore set up the connection to use interface mode. FortiOS supports both Mode Config, as well as Cisco's EasyVPN extensions. Since VPN Tracker also supports EasyVPN, we will be using EasyVPN, although a setup using only Mode Config without Cisco's extensions would also be possible.
Steps 1 to 3 - Follow Steps 1 to 3 of Task 1
The first three steps of the setup are the same as for the policy-based VPN in
Task 1.
